Barnes' Notes
They washed his armour - Rather, "the harlots bathed in it." The "pool of Samaria," which was stained with Ahab' s blood by the washing of his chariot in it, was, according to Josephus, the usual bathing-place of the Samaritan harlots. A large tank or reservoir, probably identical with this pool, still remains on the slope of the hill of Samaria, immediately outside the walls.
